Our philosophy is to craft single vineyard wines of great purity and character, reflective of our site and the season in which it was grown. Its the attention and care in the vineyard that is most critical to allowing this expression. In 2022, we embarked on an exciting new chapter for our family wine business – purchasing a special site deep in the heart of the Coal River Valley in Tasmainia. We continue the same philosophy at our Tasmanian vineyard, and we are excited to introduce our inaugural expressions of this site – a single vineyard chardonnay and pinot noir from the 2023 vintage.

2023 Was a cool and particularly dry, later season in the Coal River Valley. Small crops and lovely balance in the vineyard.

WinemakingMV6 (40%), G5V15 (40%), Abel (12%), 667 (5%) D4V2 (3%) from blocks 1, 2 5 and 3. The fruit was handpicked between 14 20 March, with each parcel handled separately in the winery. Hand sorted and carefully de-stemmed, the whole berries were then transferred to oak fermentation vats for natural fermentation. A small portion (10-20%) of whole bunches were used in 2023. Once fermentation was complete, the wines were transferred to French 500L oak barrels for maturation, 25% of which were new. The wines were left undisturbed until estate bottling in late January 2024.
Tasting Notes A bright crimson. Aromas of red fruits – strawberry, raspberry, red currant, coupled with a floral and spicy note. The palate has layers of fine grained and silky tannins. It is intense and full, with layers of flavour and texture leading to a long, lingering finish. Cellar for at least five years, and preferably more than 10.
